PRESENT AND FUTURE IN RENAL NUTRITION RESEARCH

Abstract

In March 2012, Juan Jesus Carrero visited the Department of Applied Nutrition / Nutrition Institute – Rio de Janeiro State University – as a Guest Professor (granted by UERJ’s Graduate Studies and Research Provost). His visit allowed an important interaction with the post-graduate students from the Nutrition, Health and Food post-graduate Program (Master and Doctoral degrees) and vividly discussed his area of expertise and appropriate use of epidemiology/statistics in research. This interview aims to share his opinion about present and future directions on renal nutrition research.
